Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO 4, LFP) has long been a key player in the lithium battery industry for its exceptional stability, safety, and cost-effectiveness as a cathode material.
However, the thriving state of the lithium iron phosphate battery sector suggests that a significant influx of decommissioned lithium iron phosphate batteries is imminent. The recycling of these batteries not only mitigates diverse environmental risks but also decreases manufacturing expenses and fosters economic gains.
This article explores the geopolitical relations and interdependencies emerging in the lithium extraction and manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries. It discusses the characteristics of the lithium-ion battery supply value chain to argue that lithium is not just a strategic resource.
Lithium iron phosphate batteries officially surpassed ternary batteries in 2021 with 52% of installed capacity. Analysts estimate that its market share will exceed 60% in 2024.
Many still swear by this simple, flooded lead-acid technology, where you can top them up with distilled water every month or so and regularly test the capacity of each cell using a hydrometer. Lead-acid batteries remain cheaper than lithium iron phosphate batteries but they are heavier and take up more room on board.
The LFP battery uses a lithium-ion-derived chemistry and shares many advantages and disadvantages with other lithium-ion battery chemistries. However, there are significant differences. Iron and phosphates are very common in the Earth's crust. LFP contains neither nickel nor cobalt, both of which are supply-constrained and expensive.
